Duke of Sussex confirms first public engagements since return to UK
Harry will attend three charity events this month, including the first Invictus Spirit Awards and the WellChild Awards, his team said.
Prince Harry announced a series of public engagements for September, marking his official return to charity work in Britain following his move back from the United States.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex returned to Britain two weeks ago, enrolling their children Archie and Lili in local schools after withdrawing from royal duties six years earlier.
Harry will attend the inaugural Invictus Spirit Awards and launch the INSPIRE education programme, while also participating in the annual WellChild Awards, which he has attended 15 times.
The Lord Chamberlain, acting on the King's instructions, designated the couple as "private citizens," though Harry and the Duchess reportedly prefer the term "public figures" instead.
Uganda withdrew from the 2027 Invictus Games citing "that Harry-Meghan nonsense," while a YouGov poll revealed 51 per cent of Britons would prefer the Sussexes not return as working royals.
